Creative Thinking: Techniques and Tools for Success
We employ different ways of thinking—some of us take a creative
approach, while others are more analytic; some are focused on the
short-term, while others think about the long-term. While we all
have unique minds, our tendencies have been summed up into five

looking for a formula or outlined procedure for solving problems.
These individuals tend to discount other ideas, but should open their
minds, as other ideas offer unique value.
